German title for the movie "On the Basis of Sex"

 

The great original title wouldn't have worked in non-native English-speaking countries. The solution for German speaking audiences was the German word "Berufung" which means the "appeal" to the court as well as the "vocation" to do a job someone feels called to – like Ruth Bader Ginsburg did and still does today.
